An on-demand personal automated transport system: The CityMobil demonstration in La Rochelle

Abstract

The objective of the CityMobil project is to achieve a more effective organisation of urban transport, resulting in a more rational use of motorised traffic with less congestion and pollution, safer driving, a higher quality of living and an enhanced integration with spatial development. This objective is brought closer by developing integrated traffic solutions: advanced concepts for innovative autonomous and automated road vehicles for passengers and goods, embedded in an advanced spatial setting. This paper presents the automated road vehicles service demonstration to be held in La Rochelle in 2011.
